Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On April 28, 2005, Sutron Corporation amended its 1996, 1997 and 2002 Stock Option Plans to make Directors eligible for stock option grants under the plans in addition to Officers and key employees. The plans were also amended in regards to the vesting of options. Previously the options vesting schedule required all shares to vest at the rate of twenty percent (20%) of the shares on each anniversary of the date of grant of the Option. This provision was deleted and replaced with a new provision, that the Board, in its sole discretion, will designate the vesting schedule of each individual Option that is to be granted. The 2002 stock option plan was also amended to increase the number of shares which may be issued from 400,000 shares to 650,000 shares. All stock options issued under the 1996, 1997 and 2002 Stock Option Plans are Non-Qualified Options. The Company expects to file the stock option plans, as amended, as exhibits to its next Form 10-QSB.
